"Reid if you don't stop mouth raping my best friend, I'm gonna freak!" I exclaimed.
My name is Gwendalyn Garwin. But you can call me Gwen. My life is everything but normal. Let me explain. My family descends from a 17th century line of witches. The first born in the family, usually being a male develops powers.
My brother Reid recently ascended now having full powers. All of The Covenant has ascended. Our four families has kept the secret of The Covenant safe for 300 years. Even though some of our families have been killed along the way.
Caleb and Elena's father, Pogue and Jane's mother, Tyler, Susan, Reid and myself aren't so lucky. Both our parents died trying to keep the secret.
Caleb almost died five months ago trying to save then girlfriend Sarah and all of us. But his father, James, was brave and gave Caleb his powers to fight off Chase Collins. The fifth bloodline. Back to the story.
"Now Gwen, quit being jealous. Susie's hot. I can't help myself." Reid said.
He was being cocky as usual.
Susie pulled away. "Gwennie, just go hang with Tyler. He's in the kitchen. He'll keep you company until the others get here."
So I walked into the kitchen. There was Tyler. He was Using to open the fridge door. I had to scare him/
"HEY BABY BOY!!" His soda fell to the floor. I couldn't help but to laugh.
"Gwen! Was that really necessary?"
"Actually Ty, I believe it was."
" I can't wait til everyone gets here. We are gonna party it up!"
"More like, you can't wait until Evelyn gets here."
"Why do you say that Gwen?" He seemed curious.
" Lets see Ty, you hang out with Reid. REID'S A PERV! He's in there full fledge making out with your sister. Doesn't that bug you a little?"
"Not really."
"Baby Boy your lucky I like you or I'd sock you in the face."
His eyes went black. He was Using. "Hit me Gwennie!" He was trying to make me mad. I had a short fuse, just like my brother. The doorbell rung. I ran out of the kitchen, punching Reid along the way.
I opened the door. There stood Caleb with Jane. They were so perfect together.
Evelyn butt between them running into the house.
"She's desperate. It makes me sick." Caleb said, smiling, always smiling.
"It's young love Caleb. We were like that once," Jane reminded him. He just rolled his eyes. I let them in. I felt rude keeping them at the door that long. I pulled Caleb to the side.
"Where's Pogue?"
"He just left Kates. He'll be here soon." I looked down in disappointment.
Caleb knew how much I loved Pogue. He even said at one time Pogue loved me.
"Gwen, just don't give up. If it's destined to be then you two will be together."
All of the love in the house was making me sick. " It's just hard ya know.
Everyone is happy but me. You got Jane. Reid has Susie. Tyler has Evelyn.
Pogue has Kate. And Gwen has no one."
"Gwen jus.." I cut him off, as usual.
"Caleb it's fine. Lets go party!" I always put a fake smile on. I was a Garwin, and that's what we did. We please others.
So we all sat there. We went through endless CDs. Endless DVDs. Endless food. Reid and Susie went upstairs during Twilight. Caleb and Evelyn fell asleep. Tyler went upstairs without Evelyn. Jane was the only one left awake.
"So I guess my brother was a no show?" Jane asked.
"Guess so." I responded. I was trying to keep my focus on all the dishes and not Pogue. Even though I was probably going to have Reid Use later to do all the dishes.
"Gwen I hate to do this, but I'm gonna go sleep in the recliner." I smiled.
"Jane it's fine. Be comfortable. This is literally your house too." Jane hugged me and walked into the living room.
So I sat there for twenty five minutes. I ended up deciding to do all the dishes. Then I swept. Mopped after that. I had just started picking up trash when the door bell rung.
Who could possibly be at the door? I thought.
I ran to the door. I was sort of irritated. I had to unlock every lock on this big wooden door. Who ever was on the other side of this door better have a good reason to be there. I opened the door.
Pogue.
"Pogue you look like hell!"
"Gwen we need to talk."
"Pogue, I ca.."
"Gwen please. Come on. We'll ride to the cliffs." Me being me I followed him out the door. He led me to his yellow bike.
"Put this on." He handed me a helmet. I hopped over the seat. "Hold on." I wrapped my arms around him. The feeling of being with Pogue felt great. I always had no fears when I was with Pogue. I just had the feeling of comfort and love. He started the bike. I closed my eyes, feeling the wind hit my face.
